Making it Better: Folk Art in Pennsylvania Today

As part of a two-year traveling exhibit titled “Making it Better: Folk Art in Pennsylvania Today,”  my large papercut of a home blessing in Hebrew will be hanging at the State Museum of Pennylvania from November 19, 2011 through April 29, 2012.   On Sunday, November 20, I’ll be featured in a “Conversation with the Artist” immediately following a curator’s tour of the entire exhibition with Amy Skillman.   I’ll be working on a papercut design at the museum all afternoon, and from 2 to 4 PM I’ll be talking about my work, answering questions, and letting people try their hands at this traditional folk art. The museum is located at 300 North Third Street in Harrisburg.   Check out the exhibition and the Artist’s Talk...

PennPAT Roster!

PennPAT – Pennsylvania Performing Arts on Tour – has chosen Susan Leviton as a roster artist for the upcoming 2012 season.   This extremely selective honor will allow me to book engagements throughout a 10-state mid-Atlantic region, and any non-profit group which schedules me (universities, libraries, community groups, residential centers) may apply for up to 50% of all fees, travel and lodging expenses!   I expect to be on the road throughout PA, NY, NJ, MD, DC, VA, WV, OH, DE, and perhaps the US Virgin Islands under this granting umbrella doing both solo work and in collaboration with accompanying musicians.   Please visit the PennPAT site to find out what the parameters are and how I can bring my dynamic new Yiddish cultural work to you!  Need more info?  Feel free to email me (susan@susanlevitonarts.com) and I can answer any of your questions. This is the very first time that PennPAT has awarded a performing artist working exclusively in Yiddish culture, and I am thrilled that larger audiences may be offered a taste of what a treasure-trove the Yiddish world can be!  Residencies (workshops, lectures, etc.) that accompany performances are often generously supported by PennPAT, so let’s be in touch and explore what I can bring to your community!   Click here to access PennPAT...
